Joan S | 08-27-2023

Extremely unresponsive. Customer service is a joke. They transfer you from person to person and force you to repeat steps forever. In the end, you still won't have service.

If I could give negative ten stars I would. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. The different departments do not communicate with each other, they have no problem screaming at their customers, and everything is nothing but a hassle. An unending, arduous, awful hassle.
